I have a 2000 RX300 with 105,000 miles.....I now hear 2 thumping sounds when applying my brakes. ![EEK!](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/eek1.gif)
Could this be that I need brake pads...last changed with brembo rotors & ceramic pads 38,000 miles ago?
Or could this be my ABS failing again the second time which was appx. 38,000 miles ago......left rear axle?

I found the root of the problem.
ABS sensor failure. Expensive job to fix!
ABS light is on now & I found out that when the ABS light is on the ABS is disconnected & will not work......the thumping sounds are all gone. So my question now is.....what if I drive just the way it is now with no ABS.
